Dark miso, honey and soy in roughly equal amounts. Maybe a little less soy. I put it on the filet and let it sit in the fridge for 30 minutes. Then steam cook to 120 f internal temp. Sometimes I've torched the glaze to get a little caramelization.

I really hate seeing knife marks in meat sliced after cooking, eg a roast. I have a looooong slicing knife that will go through a roast in 1 long pull leaving no knife ridges. I use it when guests are eating.

Or cook sous vide for 20 min at 185 F or so...so they are exactly as done as you want them regardless of caliber....and then torch lightly to char the tips. I have done this with good outcome.

Not sure Garden Betty gets them off the hook yet. Maybe. She cites few studies some of which are in mice (which can't always stand-in as a safety surrogate...animals differ in drug effect eg tylenol kills cats in low dose but is fine in people generally). Poisons are generally a dose-dependent thing too. I've been told that the wisdom built into cows makes them avoid tomato leaves FWIW.

Not exactly a classic potatoes fondant, but looks good. I make smashed potatoes with red (gotta be red ones, white potatoes aren't color contrasty enough to look smashed) new potatoes. Boiled till tender, smashed with a tomato paste can (Contadina), then fried in butter till brown and crusty

I agree about Hallmark holidays. Not quite legit, but Mother’s Day comes close for me. And it’s an excuse to cook/eat/visit so there’s that.

I know what might happen to returned food. So almost never. Maybe if I say "no sour cream" and its covered with it, I'll ask for a new one. But I make such an emphasis on "no SC" when ordering that they can't claim I didn't tell them. And I'm nice about it.

Maybe it just needed a rest for a day or two. Works way with smoked cheese.

I recall La Gloria had quality problems about 10 years ago...loose packing...which is why I switched to Punch.

La Gloria...very nice smoke. I lean toward Punch Pita Maduro usually.

That’s really the worry. A field plant infused oil is a botulism risk. Keep it frozen, no big deal. But that’s a long story to include with a farmers market purchase. Re the product, I think I’d use a neutral oil rather than evoo.

I blame brainless consultants who apply their brainless formulae to every restaurant who is clueless enough to hire them. Brainless consultants are a blot on business in the US.

The breaded meat should have oil halfway up its side as @robirdstx said. That does result in some greasy breading since the crumbs are dry and won't exclude the oil like a wet french fry will. I wonder if an air fryer technique could be modified to low oil cooking of breaded meats....you could pre-brown the crumbs by toasting in a dry pan and then coat the meat and then pan cook/roast with a light film of oil. It'll be inefficient cooking since the meat won't be touching the pan, only the crumbs will be, but it won't be an oily coating.

We all should.

The problem with sealing a box is that there is air in the box too which won't be removed unless it collapses completely...which it won't. I think it'd be better to seal unboxed candy in a zip loc bag using the water immersion method to force out the air.'' Disclaimer- I'm not a candy maven.

and ground meat, esp turkey.

Works well for melting cheese on a burger too

I don't trust slow cookers. They are all too hot for anything I might cook.

@JoNorvelleWalker could Uber fix this?

@JoNorvelleWalker The fish places down here have had shad for a while and our little local creek has had hickory shad, the little brother of the American shad , being caught for weeks.
